We head back to the airport today to take a short flight to Jabalpur where we will be met by drivers and transported by private vehicles to Khana. The drive takes approximately 4 hours. Enjoy seeing India's countryside as we drive through villages and markets. We'll arrive at Khana Earth Lodge where we'll be welcomed by the friendly staff and shown to our rooms. Make sure you bring your swimsuit to enjoy the glorious pool. The lodge has lovely gardens and trails to enjoy at your leisure. We'll be served dinner in the beautiful dining room or in the garden under the stars. 

The day we've all been waiting for! We start early before sunrise and venture into Khana National Park where unspeakable beauty and amazing wildlife await. Some believe that the Jungle Book is based on Khana National Park and it's easy to see why. Dense forest, beautiful trees, meadows and lakes make for a stunning back drop for finding wildlife. We'll have a morning and afternoon drive with a break in the middle of the day. Enjoy a freshly prepared lunch and some free time to relax, work on photos, take a swim or check out the wonderful books in the lodge library. 

After a leisurely breakfast and some final goodbyes to our wonderful staff, we depart for Bandhavgarh National Park. The drive is roughly 5.5 hours with a nice rest stop in between. Enjoy the scenery of India as you're transported by private vehicles to our new lodge. We'll arrive at Tree House Hideaway and get settled in and have a free afternoon to unwind in this luxurious oasis. Enjoy a drink at the bar or the sounds of wildlife on the balcony of your room. Every room here is its own treehouse hideaway so you always feel like you're in the middle of the forest even in your own room. 

We'll spend our days exploring the beautiful and varied landscape of Bandhavgarh looking for tigers, sloth bears, birds and other wildlife. We will have morning and afternoon drives with a break in the middle of the day. On one of our days in Bandhavgarh, we will have our special full day pass.

All good things must come to an end and today we'll be saying goodbye to the wonderful staff at Treehouse Hideaway. We'll be transported by private vehicle back to Jabalpur to fly to New Delhi.
